Default Do Curvy Wheels (99) fit pointies? (K3 2003)

Think I read that they don't. Can anyone verify for both front and rears?
thanks

Rear wheels do with different bearings, IIRC- the axle size is different. I don't think fronts do.

Fronts fit with a spacer inbetween speedo drive and fork leg, you also need carby discs.

Rear discs are different but wheels are the same with different bearings

Wow that was quick. Just to confirm I've got this correct. As I still have my 99 naked with near new touring tyres I should without to much bother be able to fit the 99 front ( with spacer and original curvy discs) and rear ( using the pointy wheels bearings and axle bolt and possibly the 99 disk ) to the pointy for a 3000mls eurotrip instead of its somewhat unsuitable half worn supercorsa pros. I Imagine if I want to use the svs sprocket I can swop the whole hub /cushdrive assembly. Note to eurotourers - getting tyres in spain and probably france can be time consuming, don't expect to drive in and find a good selection of brands. In my cae it was hobsons choice and then after visiting 4 dealers.

How about the captive spacer in the rear wheel? Does the carbed one work there?

You'll need the K3 disc

You'll need the centre spacer out of the K3 cush drive as its 20mm i/d

Its the spacers that are the main difference between bikes, the front wheels (both models) have small o/d bearings so you cannot get larger id ones to fit, you can use a bandit 12 wheel though and then fit captive spacers with 20 or 25mm i/d bearings to take the spacers.
The disc side changes from carb to injected
